In his own inimitable commentary style, the late, great Murray Walker once said: '"If" is a very long word in Formula 1; in fact, "if" is "F1" spelled backwards.' A brilliant line typical of a man affectionately known as "the voice of F1". It could be pointed out that "F1" backwards is instead "1F", like the very special registration number offered here.

First issued in the Essex area in 1957, this registration has previously been applied on exotics such as a Ferrari 812 GTS. It now represents an outstanding opportunity for collectors to give their car an instant identity.
